Section 15 Still a dish
Li Yuntao had no doubt that if this knife was stabbed, he would be like a balloon filled with water that had been punctured.
His pupils shrank to almost pinhole size in an instant, and he subconsciously looked up to find the source of the shadow.
There was no knife around as far as the eye could see, let alone the person with the knife!
Looking down again, the shadow's movements have not stopped at all, the knife has been swung down, at this time, Li Yuntao because of the crisis of life and death, the speed of thinking has increased geometrically, and the speed of the shadow of the knife has slowed down in the line of sight, as if there is an invisible barrier blocking its progress, it can only break through layer by layer, so the action has become one by one.
But Li Yuntao has never encountered this strange situation, he doesn't know how to deal with it at all, and even if he knows, it's too late to do anything now!
Note! That's right note! The master and himself are the notes left for themselves! The scene when the two separated seemed to be only a moment ago, and the righteous and awe-inspiring determination on the face of the master Song Tingyu and the reluctant sadness hidden in the depths of his eyes seemed to be engraved in Li Yuntao's eyes and in front of his pupils.
The master's notes must have recorded his cultivation experience and experience in fighting monsters, and if he had gone through the notes left by the master earlier, he might have been able to find a way at this time.
Pity... He closed his eyes unwillingly and desperately, crossed over, and came to experience the bitter life of the ancient people.
Kiss~
The almost inaudible sound sounded in his ears, and for Li Yuntao, who had already raised his senses to the extreme at this time, even if the surrounding background sound was noisy, he still caught this sound wave for the first time.
He thought it was the sound of skin and flesh being pierced by sharp blades.
A layer of transparent ripples rippled from the back of Li Yuntao's body, like a drop of water dropping on the calm surface of the lake, the ripples were transparent and illusory, beautiful as a phantom.
However, a second ripple followed suit and rippled again.
Li Yuntao didn't feel anything unusual, his subordinates covering his heart were crazy to show their sense of existence, it was still vigorous, and even seemed a little manic and violent, as if it was about to rush out of his chest in shock.
Li Yuntao suddenly opened his eyes again, and he finally realized that the previous pain was just a warning of crisis, a talent that he was born with, and it seemed that it was a talent that was useless among the many crossing gods.
The second ripple was rippling in front of his eyes and was slowly dissipating, and the third was not far behind it. Turning his head suddenly, Li Yuntao's pupils that contracted into pinholes reflected the fourth ripple that was spreading.
Dodge sideways, roll, kneel up with one hand, pick up the crossbow machine to aim, shoot!.
Li Yuntao's series of actions were completed like lightning.
Whew~Smack!
The bolt fired towards the ripple shot hit the carriage at his side almost at the same time.
The huge kinetic bolts pierced the wooden compartment of the wagon, sending splinters of wood flying all over the sky.
Didn't hit!
Li Yuntao only paused for a moment, kicked his feet with his legs, and his body made a dodge and tumbling to the side like lightning again. Because the heart-piercing warning had not gone away, but it had only been interrupted for a short second before striking again.
But at least there are gaps, proving that it cannot attack continuously. At this time, he didn't have time to think about what protected him, and he only tried his best to protect himself. Whenever that sense of crisis hit, he rolled and dodged, albeit a little embarrassed, so embarrassed that even the bits and pieces he wanted to hang were scattered to the ground in the tumbling, and the homemade glowing pendant that hung around his neck as a necklace was thrown out of his neckline, and even stained with a mixture of dirt and animal manure.
But he's still alive, he can still breathe, and he can continue to dodge!
He still uses the crouching action of touching the ground with one hand and holding the crossbow in one hand, maintaining vigilance that he can roll over and dodge at any time, the slightly long pendant of hemp rope hangs around his neck and sways back and forth, it hangs between his body and the ground, although it looks like a white stone with extremely rough workmanship in the sun, but the shadow under Li Yuntao's body is illuminated by it, becoming as if it is different from the surrounding sun-lit ground, and only a little shadow can be faintly seen.
The sense of crisis disappeared randomly and inexplicably. Li Yuntao looked around with a crossbow in a daze, and he couldn't see anything, hear or even smell. It, the vicious, insidious, cunning attacker, seemed to let himself go, and the sense of crisis disappeared so abruptly.
Sweat had soaked through Li Yuntao's clothes, and drops of stained muddy sweat kept dripping from the tips of the hair hanging down on his forehead. He could only remain vigilant and continue to crouch, helpless and desperate to search for possible enemies.
The heart that seemed to be going berserk calmed down little by little after this.
Time passed quietly after the near-endless torment it had brought him, and a quarter of an hour passed in a flash. The sense of crisis never rose again. By this time, his physical strength was already close to exhaustion before he knew it.
By this time, he had to admit that the crisis had passed. He sat on the ground, leaned back with his hands on the ground, held his head high, and opened his mouth to meet the sun that was about to climb into the middle of the sky, and let out a long breath.
The whole body was heavy as if it was coated with a layer of lead, and the tiredness seemed to have killed three sandy maggots in a row.
He did kill all three, but only one by one.
"What the hell is this?" Li Yuntao muttered to himself, rested for a while, and then raised his left hand to his arms and groped for the inner bag, and took out the cowhide notebook from it.
"Let me look it up." He mustered up his spirits, sat cross-legged on the floor, and began to look through his notes carefully.
The women on the other side who were hiding far away in the convoy, although still afraid, still looked at the short man with surprise and admiration.
"The Father is above, and he survived. It's nothing short of a miracle! "A middle-aged woman who is a little older makes a prayer gesture towards the sun in the sky.
"He's so powerful, Lloyd and the horse died almost instantly."
"Not to mention that cowardly Lloyd, who was so ashamed to want to run away instead of standing in front of us to protect us and fight the monsters."
"But we don't even know where the monster is, and what it looks like."
"He should know that that person just spoke Donghuang language?"
"I only understand a little bit. Lloyd was fluent in Donghuang, but he was dead. ”
"Jaylander, are you still there? Do you understand what he just shouted? The older woman shouted out of the carriage.
A nervous and trembling, but pretending to be low and majestic voice came from under the carriage: "I'm on guard, I can't find that monster, I can only try to protect you." Damn, my palms are sweaty, the handle of the scimitar is a little slippery, I'm going to get a new wrap when I go back, if it slips during the fight, I'm finished! ”
"Oh Godfather, it's good that Lloyd has a good brother who can be trusted." The women found their hearts in an instant. "Okay, Jaylander, you hold on, if you make it back alive, even if you get a new horn handle."
"Now can you tell me what he just shouted?" The older woman then asked.
"He seemed to be asking how those two horses and my good brother Lloyd died, and damn we couldn't even see where the monster was, how would we know how he died. Heavenly Father, if this is your test, I will sell this shipment and offer two to your temple, nay, one... A pure gold imperial coin. That's half of all our income for this trip. As soon as the voice under the carriage mentioned the money, it instantly became a little gnashing of teeth.
"Oh, Jaylander, you're so stingy." Another woman said.
"You know what, Alan! We have lost two sturdy animals who have been working for a good time, and my good brother Lloyd, who is fluent in Donghuang language! Livestock needed to be bought new, and Lloyd needed to be buried. But without Lloyd, we don't know if we can go to Donghuang for business on our next trip. And after that, we really don't have any income left for this trip, really. ”
The women were disdainful, but they could only bury it in their wombs and obediently avoid the topic.
"Then can you ask that short Donghuang man for help in Donghuang language?" The older woman asked again.
"I'll give it a try, and I hope he can kill that monster. That way, at least we can get out of this place quickly. Hell, why are there monsters in White Sands City. I think that invisible guy might be a demon with the same name as the forest demon. They must not be satisfied with just eating the fools who break into the woods, and come to the city to find more people to eat. ”
"Or maybe some idiot brought them here, and they followed him to this White Sands City." Jayland grumbled, as if he couldn't speak again without saying anything.
"Alright, Jaylander, my dear Jayland, you hurry up and ask that Donghuang man." A young woman finally couldn't help it and spoke.
"Oh, okay, okay, I'll ask." Jayland finally remembered that there was still something to do.
"Hey!" He shouted to Li Yuntao, who was sitting on the ground a few meters away.
Li Yuntao ignored him and was still looking through his notes.
"Please help us, please, I can give you whatever you want!" Jayland didn't give up, he shouted in Donghuang dialect, which he was not proficient in, and even the women in the carriage felt that his Donghuang language was stumbling, which was not a little worse than the smooth and silky Donghuang of the dead Lloyd.
Li Yuntao still ignored it, he was engrossed in flipping through the notes left by Song Tingyu, trying to find a way to break the situation. But the more he flipped through it, the more irritated he became, and the notes did record a lot of experience in fighting monsters and demons, introducing several common evil beasts and monsters, as well as a large number of demon beasts!
There is a lot of knowledge related to the demon clan in this note, and there are few monsters. And Li Yuntao has almost finished the recorded part of the note, and has not yet found the knowledge he wants.
"Help me, please! Whatever, whatever it is, I'll give it to you! Jaylander's voice sounded again and again.
This pushed the irritability in Li Yuntao's heart to the top. "I'm bored, be quiet! Let me figure out what to do with this! He looked up in resentment, and a pair of eyes bloodshot from anxiety glared at Jaylander, who was lying under the car.
An aura full of irritability, ferocity, and anger instantly shrouded it, and it was like a bucket of ice water poured down on the head and everyone in the carriage in the carriage instantly.
Geyland pouted his ass and threw his hands directly on the ground, holding his head and trembling, not even finding that there was a lump of crushed feces embedded in the ground where he pounced, and the scimitar fell on the ground next to him.
Li Yuntao at this moment is more terrifying in his eyes than those monsters who bite people when they see them.
Li Yuntao retracted his gaze angrily and continued to flip through the notes, there were only two pages left with the content record, and the slightly scribbled calligraphy was not easy to recognize, and now he didn't find the content he wanted, and of course he was upset.
Sure enough, not a single word touched the monster in front of me when he turned the last two pages, and then he turned back to a dozen or so pages of thick grass paper. Li Yuntao could only sigh and put the notebook back in his inner pocket with disappointment and frustration.
In the future, I will have time to read it carefully, and the knowledge recorded in it can be said to be very valuable for him now, especially for the content of dredging the eye meridians, which is what he needs most now, and his next step is to dredge the eye meridians and complete the last step of the five senses.
According to the records in the notes, the first thing a cultivator at the apprentice stage should do is to open the sea of qi, which is also the most basic and fundamental condition for identifying whether a mortal can become a cultivator and then advance to transcendence.
After sensing the aura to enter the body and open the sea of qi, the apprentice needs to achieve the five senses in turn, and then the qi and blood are boiling, and the bones are reborn, the tendons are cleansed, and the next step is to gain insight into the true self Lingtai Ming pure mana out of the body.
After achieving these three things, we have the three basic conditions for building a transcendent foundation. That is, the three mansions are fully open and the cultivation has reached a certain level.
These are all things that will be done in the future, and now Li Yuntao must solve the current crisis. But there is no relevant record and knowledge in the notes.
An invisible sense of loss enveloped him, and he lost the 'strategy' he could rely on, and Li Yuntao once again fell back to his outright 'rookie' identity. In the face of the sand maggot before, I found a way to target it by mistake, so it can be said that it is lucky, but can the luck always be so good?
Before the crossing, he was a well-known big non-chief, and the game gacha card was never guaranteed to be shipped in the end. A few friends play a game together, and the role of a white prostitute can only be obtained by himself, but he is a face-saving person, and he has to get the role he wants, so that the living expenses are overdrawn and can only starve and eat soil, and his body has been suffering from hunger and malnutrition.
The past is unbearable.
Li Yuntao patted his face with both hands, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, people are already here, there is always danger to face, they were not killed just now, and there is no reason to give up now, right?
That's right!
What was it that helped me block that weird attack?
Li Yuntao recalled every detail of his previous escape. The rippling ripple texture emerges from behind you. And behind him is a copper book in addition to the backpack, if you can't figure out what the use is the meteorite egg and the copper book in the bag.
After all, the other miscellaneous items are prepared by themselves, and they know what to use. And this notebook given by the master, no matter how you look at it, it is a notebook, you can't insist that it is a magic weapon that fixes the defense spell aura and protects the body, right?
Ritual ..... If there is anything like a magic weapon, the meteorite is obviously impossible, only the copper book.
There is another detail, after the pendant illuminated his shadow under his body before, the monster stopped attacking.
Linked to the fact that he saw a knife swinging at himself in the shadow before, but not in reality, it is very likely that the monster relied on the shadow to attack. As for the principle of this attack? Lao Tzu is not a scientist, he studies eggs. Go back and record this matter, so that Lao Song wants to go, and when he is a master, he still wants to leave his apprentice alone and dream.
Ah, old Song. Don't die in the monster pile. And the phantom night old cat, you said okay to look at me, why are you not reliable at all? I have to turn your hair bald.
Li Yuntao shook his head, retracted his divergent thoughts, and reversed his body to untie the copper book tied to the back of his backpack. Three times five divided by two unwrapped the cloth holding the copper book, a beautiful book with an all-copper texture appeared in his hand.
The half-embossed star embedded in the center of the thick copper cover is flawlessly carved, and the cover pattern that unfolds around the star is beautiful, and even the copper edging that wraps the foot is integrated with those patterns, which is simply a work of art!
And in the sun, it shows its own extraordinary, the pattern on the surface of the cover seems to be faintly glowing, I don't know when there are some glowing silk threads, they are not like silk threads, because they are like rushing rivers, all the time in the carved lines flowing, rushing, repeated.
It's like a flowing light.
The amount of light is very small, only a thin layer, and it is far from filling the not-so-deep line. And following the flowing light, Li Yuntao found that the intersection of several patterns and engraved lines on the cover was faintly familiar.
No, it can't be true.
Li Yuntao's heart jumped uncontrollably. Following his vague memory, he opened the clasp of the cover, opened the bronze book and turned the pages quickly, the brass pages shining like gold in the sun.
The people in the convoy in the distance were attracted by the golden light and turned their gaze over, or rather, they never looked away, and at this time, they couldn't take their eyes off it. Even those farther away looked at it. Among them is Ani.
Lin Yuntao quickly found the page in his impression, which was easy to find, after all, there was only one text engraved on these brass pages, and the text would make him feel dizzy after reading it for a long time.
He only glanced at it and rummaged through the next one.
Sure enough, the text on the cover of the copper book is all here. It's just how to use it in combination, Li Yuntao still needs to learn more. He closed the bronze book, and his heart suddenly felt more confident.
Let's just say that this bronze book was placed in the rotunda, and the entire hall building was attacked and destroyed like that, how could it be intact? This bronze book comes with a protective cover.
He is not as good as a book, Li Yuntao lamented in his heart.
"I'm a rookie, I'm a rookie, I'm a rookie, I've only opened the sea of qi for a few days, and nothing will be normal." He comforted himself in his heart, and then wrapped the bronze book in a wrap again.
Although he is a child on the outside, he is a detective on the inside...... Ahh It's gone. I'm a real adult who has lived two lifetimes, and I know how to conceive my sins.
In the distance, the convoy was either in awe or fear, but a large part of it was already filled with greed, enough to attract his attention.
Anyway, when the cloth was wrapped before, the copper book could also play a role, and there was no need for me to show off the market. Use hemp rope to make a few strong knots outside the copper book, and then separate the extra rope into two strands, bypass the shoulders and armpits, and put the copper book on the chest and the backpack to form a successive echo.
After tying up, Li Yuntao felt that he had simply put on a chest armor. He tried to move, and it was ok.
All the previous weights were concentrated on the back, but at this time, this copper book, which was thirty pounds to say the least, was placed on the chest, and the weight before and after was much more balanced. It's just that the bronze book rests on his chest, and his arms move a little uncomfortably.
Next, it's time to meet the guy hiding in the shadows.
